Comments:

Went pretty well, shared a lot of the same road with the bike course so I knew what to expect. Mile 1 started uphill, then was downhill most of the way, Mile two had some steep hills, and Mile 3 was almost entirely uphill to the finish.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, maybe push a little harder on the downhills
Post race
Warm down:

Drink lots of water and eat some bananas and cookies

Event comments:

I really liked this course and I think with better publicity it could get pretty big in the future. Roads were very nice, tons of volunteers, and great venue.
